While trying to do a svn commit from within TextMate, I get this error:

We need Ruby to proceed.

I'm guessing that this is a configuration problem, but I can't figure out what I've got set wrong.

Solved my own problem -- and it was a dumb config error. In Preferences->Advanced->Shell Variables, TM_RUBY wasn't correct for my installation. It was /usr/local/bin -- should be /usr/local/bin/ruby. With that fix, svn commits (and other svn functions) now work correctly.

I'm guessing that one of the updates changed this shell variable, as previously svn was working fine within TM. Hope this saves someone the same puzzle anyway...
